What kind of home is it? A home that price in Greenfield aught to be a *really* nice home. The tradtional 2 story early 1900's homes are going in the $160 range. The brand new condos on Silver Street are in the $200's and those are brand new. If you are interested in purchasing a home contact me and I'll help you out. I could find some comparables for you and see if that home is actually worth what they are asking.

It seems to me that if the investor would actually like to sell the property it would be wise to lower the price-- although I know nothing of the property to which you are talking about. There are some home that are worth that depending on the home and location.

doing a quick MLS search in that price range was mostly homes that are so brand new, they aren't built yet.

You can go to the town and research the recent sale. However what may have happened here is that the property may have been sold through what they call wholesale. Depending what they purched it for ,or what the condition of the home may have been ,they may have had to rehab it. I kinow in my area homes in that price range don't sell very quick so be patient and you never know it could be yours...

You could check the registry fo deeds in your area for exactly what they paid for it. The price on the foreclosure deed may not represent the price they paid for it. It often is a percentage of what the original mortgage was. Asking prices are just that, make an offer, it cant hurt. Good luck with your purchase Steve.
